What amp to get EVH / diesel

[joaquinho]

Heya !
Im a noob, so i thought i ask some more experienced heads.
And i know its personal taste and all, but would you rather buy the EVH 50W ( the 100 is not to be ordered) , or would you go with the diezel Herbert or Hagen?

Keywords being susta , attack &, nice low end .
Hope you habe the best of days sir's & sirenes

Thats kind like saying do I want a steak or chicken . The amps you named are so far apart . THe EVH is a good amp at a much lower price point.WHat type of music do you play ?
Are you a noob to playing ? If so I would go for the EVH.

Yeah both the EVH and Diezel brands are very good and they both kind of aim (and succeed, in my opinion) at the same kind of tight, full high gain sound, but they feel quite different to play though.

Personally I like the feel of EVH amps more.

Just curious why the 100 watt EVH is not in the mix? Is it not at the music store you're looking at cause the Herbert is a massive head.

Have not played the Diezels (I will one day) but I've owned the 50 watt EVH 6l6 combo and EL34 head. They're extremely hard to beat cost wise, especially used and sound killer.

Key question: are you located in Europe or in the Americas? By your name I wonder if you are either in Portugal, Spain, or Latin America. This could explain why you're considering Diezel in the same conversation as EVH. In the States, Diezel is much, much more expensive than EVH.

If you're stateside, maybe consider a Mesa amp?

Herbert. Simple.
